Usabilty Engineer and JavaScript/TypeScript Developer.
On the path to become a Clean Code Developer.

I started Programming with QuickBasic in the early 2000s. I wanted to move to a more sophisticated language and tried to find a tutorial for C++. (It was not that easy back then) I wanted to try something simple first, like a number guessing game. But the tutorial was like "you dont even know if the machine you are coding for has a terminal" After that sentence I closed the tutorial and and ditched the idea of learning C++ and moved to python instead.
... I just wanted to share this 18 years old story with you...
There are so many concepts one needs to learn. before you can write one single line of code. ie. one needs to choose an IDE and a compiler first. There are so many options. It is overwhelming.
